This forum is dedicated to discussions pertaining specifically to the Motorola ASTRO line of radios (those that use VSELP/IMBE/AMBE), including using digital modulation, digital programming, FlashPort upgrades, etc. If you have general questions please use the General or Programming forums.

RM POP25 / OTAP now performs differential codeplug updates, meaning only the latest changes are written to the radio and not the entire codeplug. This improves performance by programming multiple radios in the least amount of airtime possible.

The CPS is released at the same time the factory gets the firmware, that way when they ship you a new radio you should be prepared to program it. The firmware is not released to the field until after the factory QC starts shipping the corresponding release version.

Call MOL and ask them to refresh your directory. This happens periodically. My MOL account is so old, its only 4 digits after the zeros, and this has happened several times over the last ten years or so.

APX Customer programming software (CPS) number RVN5224: A system error temporarily allowed customers to access and download the APX software without purchase. Correction of the system error will require those customers affected to purchase a three-year software subscription and complete the licensing process. Customers with pre-existing subscriptions are not impacted by this change. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.
